The songs on the album are largely power-pop, along with the blues typical of Chilton's latter-day musical career, also incorporating influences from disco on "Love Revolution", and baroque on "Aria, Largo".

"Best Chance" and "February's Quiet" are the album's two Jody Stephens led songs, both composed in collaboration with Auer, and also bear some resemblance to Big Star's earlier material stylistically.

Ken Stringfellow is lead vocalist and primary writer of the album's fourth track, "Turn My Back On The Sun", which musically references The Beach Boys, who Chilton had toured with during his time with The Box Tops.

The second cover is of Baroque composer Georg Muffat's "Aria, Largo", whose arrangement was scored by Chilton, and performed by the band.

"Hung Up With Summer" is another Chilton led number, one which bears some resemblance to his earlier Big Star songs, and became a regular part of the band's set until 2009.
